Court insiders report that in addition to filing a lawsuit, lawyers and judges deeply connected to CJP have cryptically given instructions for court staff, and contract workers, to destroy emails and documents that would expose how the Commission on Judicial Performance (CJP) has failed to discipline judges engaging in bias, misconduct, fraud and other criminal activity.

​It is suspected that in the six months since the state legislature has ordered the audit, CJP has shredded and destroyed thousands of internal documents they didn't want the auditor to find.

​As the state audit of the CJP continues to be delayed, those deeply connected to what appears to be a corrupt judicial watchdog agency are desperately lobbying , filing lawsuits and blocking the public from access . Behind the scenes some of California's top judges and lawyers are reported to be assisting the blockade, buying time to destroy evidence that could likely dismantle over 60% of California's judiciary,

​The judges , who have historically been a close and tightly knit group are reported to be infighting for personal self-preservation. Judges who previously refused to come forward to "rat out" their peers have been reported to be secretly sending information to the state auditor and encouraging court insiders to provide information under Whistleblower protection.

Court insiders have taken on the risky tact of illegally recording documents and emails before following instructions to destroy them. Several insiders have been leaking information to the press.

​People who have filed complaints against judges are also coming forward to assist with the audit. Several have provided copies of complaints and CJP's responses to those complaints directly to the state auditor. It is reported that when the state auditor shows up with information provided by the public, it won't match CJP files, which are being altered and destroyed.

​Ironically, it may be those "disgruntled" litigants CJP is always whining about that helps California's State Auditor uncover mass corruption and failures to discipline judges sitting in California Courts.

​WHY IS CJP's VICTORIA HENLEY PARANOID??

The CJP appears to want to bury complaints filed by the poorest members of society , poor people who face outlandish fees and costs to access the court system, and who routinely have their complaints ignored , or dismissed by form letter. These same people appear to have been denied justice in their individual cases. If this is true, California's courts could face a dire emergency where cases could be reopened. The financial impact of that would be immense, a near impossibility.

The first item of business for California's courts should be to fire Henley- she has been in control of the CJP for far too long, she is not indispensable,. Further, Henley's tenure is clouded with more than an appearance of fraud, misconduct and waste of public funds.

Next stop should be the state's Supreme Court Justice, the individual personally responsible for each state agency that failed to protect the public and the integrity of California's courts. Those investigating court corruption are all too familiar with Tani Gorre Cantil-Sakauye​, her days of judicial misconduct predate to her tenure in Sacramento, where lawyers and litigants referred to her as the "crooked court judge in designer high heels".

​JANE & JOHN Q PUBLIC COLLECT INFORMATION FOR STATE AUDIT OF CJP AND STATE BAR

​​Anyone who had filed a complaint with the California State Bar, or the Commission on Judicial performance, in the past 7 years, is being asked to send copies of the complaints, and the state agency's , or county , response to those complaints, The information is being organized by court, judge and lawyer and will be forwarded to the state auditor.

The CJP is essentially taking the stance that the livelihood of a judge is worth more than the wellbeing of a child.

And the CJP is mandated by the State to protect the public.... There is no mandate to protect a judge's livelihood.

That is exactly what they are arguing. If they submit fully to the audit, then previously confidential info will tarnish reputations and undermine confidence in the courts. I think that if there are patterns of allegations of corruption against a particular judge, then it is true. No one disputes that the court's authority will be undermined, but deservedly so. The alternative that the CJP wants us to eat is that it all gets swept under the rug like it never happened.

If you write Elaine Howle ,state auditor referrencing audit team 2016-137CJP, and say that you want them to find your complaint in the audit, and name judges, and waive the confidentiality claimed by the CJP in their Petition, you may as I did get a letter assigning a case no. to you and email address to send documents, then copy the CJP so they know what the auditor knows to look for. Cheers.

I too got a lot of CJP letters advising me to hire an attorney and go back to court if I didn't like the outcome...so CJP didn't have to do any real work.

forward your complaint and CJP response to the statue auditor, audit team 2016-137 to show a pattern: letter saying they got your complaint, then brush off letter saying they can't change a court order or go hire an attorney and go back to court. No investigation. This is very important right now! Legislature can cut funding if CJP is shown to do nothing.

What I meant to say the Judges are committing crimes based on utilizing the Law. What Henley is telling me is she is never going to do her job.

It works from the top down.

* The CJP empowers and protects judges from consequences of corruption.

* The judges empower the lawyers and evaluators to gauge and extort the public.

The lawyers and the CJP are probably connected as well. My guess is that Valerie Houghton and Victoria Henley share more than just initials.

It's a filthy operation.

And now Ms. Henley is spending tax payer dollars to keep it going.

Dear Ms. Henley,

I hope that you come to this site to see what others have been through during their time in family court.

I recently got out of an abusive relationship that was both physically and emotionally abusive. Every time that I expressed my feelings to my former spouse the response I received always was that I was "crazy" or that I was "just being paranoid."

It took me awhile to learn that this type of denial was all part of the abuse. I am still trying to get over the effects of this.

I view your response to various complaints that have been made about judges in the court system in the same light as the way my former spouse ignored my reactions and my pleas to stop the abuse.

I implore you to stop calling people with legitimate complaints "disgruntled litigants."

Thank you.

Sincerely,

M.

It's a dead end/black hole RUSE, any complaining system. It's a sinisterly designed bogus tactic simply to gather information to use against the complainant. Any more our Probate and Family courts are FOR SALE to the highest bidder, period. If you want to destroy someone, rob someone, or rape someone, if you have enough money to play court games and hire the judges' most popular attorneys dealing in kickbacks, you can commit crime against anyone. The court will help you. My belief is the United States owes so much money from the government's mishandling our hard earned taxes that it has become a mafia. Probate/Family court is used and abused as a Cash Cow and all in authority know what's going on because theyre behind the BIG SCAM. And BIG DADDY GOV. will not help us towards justice and nowhere is this more apparent then in Department 14 Martinez California in front of the horror show that is John H Sugiyama, X assistant Attorney General of California. We are naive to think that anything but revolution and taking to the streets will ever get restitution for the blatant crimes committed against the most vulnerable of our society by these miscreants with a law degree.
